RE: Pure Inspiration (NYC/Week One)
You have described the energy of that city very well. It is indeed if you have the entire world at your fingertips (I hope that is the word you meant) 24/7.
I have been in NY four times, three times on a visit for a week and once for my work and I experienced it that way also.
I wish you and the team a very good and productive time in this glorious city.
Thanks, @clio! I fixed that typo...oops! : ) How did you like the city when you visited? We miss green grass and trees. Where we're staying in Brooklyn there's concrete and pavement as far as the eye can see.
The first time was in the early seventies, we bought a car in New York and drove to LA and back, the last time was a few years ago for my work as a principal. We visited schools in NY and Pennsylvania. We stayed in Manhattan so we had a big park! For me it was a great feeling to walk the streets I saw so many times on TV, to visit MoMa (I felt like a little girl in a candy store) and other museums, Brooklyn Bridge, Harlem, Battery Park and the surroundings where once the Twin Towers were. The schools upset me sometimes, but I saw a lot of motivated teachers. In others words, it was fantastic and I hope to come back one day.
